Hi Everyone,
Here is the link you need to see us as we gather to share ideas after Form 1 & 2 finished exams. Partying with the Archbishop Porter Girls, Sir Christian Djokotoe and Sir Samuel Bentum, too. Thank you Sir Jerry for connecting us to the amplified sounds.
APGSS Party with Ms. Breese & Ms Matera
Take notice of the similarities and differences in dance styles and body moves.
Comment: I like how they all support each other over in Ghana instead of hating when somebody comes up to dance they all clap and cheer that person on instead of talking about them.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Do they have special dances for certain songs? Do the boys and girls party together? How do the boys and girls dance together ?
Fact: The people in Ghana is supportive of one another !

I like how during the dance the girls of Archbiship Porter Girls Secondary School. Would do some of the same dances as we do over here in the United States. I also liked how during the dance the girls gave appreciation to their teacher by chanting B.T.. Which stands for best teacher when regarding Sir. Samuel Bentum. And I also liked how Ms. Breese even joined in with the girls during the dance.
ReplyDeleteFact: After attaining their independence from the Europeans. "The Gold Coast"(originally named by the British) was renamed Ghana under the leadership of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah in 1957.
Questions: Does a dance or some type of celebration happen at the end of every semester? How were the two American girls able to attend APGSS? If you wanted to attend APGSS do your parents have to be or from Ghana?

I like the fact that the girls did not say boo!as we do over here they just all cheered and danced together and that to me tells you a lot about their school over there in Ghana. watching them enjoy school tells me that take advantage of their education because what we do over here is kids take advantage of their education over here in the U.S so to me kids in Ghana love and respect their teachers.
ReplyDeleteFact: Ghana reaches and average temperature of 110 degrees on a yearly bases
Question what makes Ghana a harsh environment for people to live in.
I like how all the girls were very postive towards each other . None of the girls had nothing bad to say and they all supported each other . All the girls seem really smart and they value their education and take nothing for granted a lot of kids over here do not know how blessed they are .
ReplyDeleteFact: The currency used in Ghana is called Cedi.
Question why is the water so bad over there and where do they get there good drinking water from ?

Comment: It is very interesting to see the students be very supportive of whomever is dancing. Here in America students would be called every name except their birth name. If America had Ghana's atmosphere, I am positive
ReplyDeleteyou would see a lot more people dancing than what you would normally see.
Question: Was it easy or hard to pick up on the dance moves?
Fact: Ghana is the second largest producer of cocoa in the world.
